Quantum Breakthrough: Physicists Prove Antimatter is both a Wave and Particle

For the first time in history, physicists have demonstrated that antimatter is both a wave and a particle—a major scientific breakthrough. On May 3, 2019, a team led by Italian physicists along with the Albert Einstein Center for Fundamental Physics at the University of Bern in Switzerland, published their landmark study in Science Advances, a highly-selective peer-reviewed journal of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)—an international nonprofit scientific association established in 1849 to amplify scientific communication not only between scientists and engineers, but also with the general public.

How Satellites Communicate With Earth and Each Other

As of the beginning of 2019, nearly 5,000 satellites are orbiting our planet out of 8,300 objects launched into space since 1957.

LIVE and Let DIEt: Taking Stock of the Ketogenic Kalamity

Breast Cancer Screening: of Chances, and Choices

A sardonic insight by Bertrand Russell deftly, if disturbingly, conveys much of what is wrong in the realm of modern health promotion, particularly where diet is concerned: “The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, and wiser people so full of doubts.” Ordinarily, I would follow the ramifications of that observation for nutrition to all the dubious places they take us, as I have before. But today, I am on a different mission; today’s topic is breast cancer screening.
